FIC Card

SciFi genius Card switches to Thrillers in a taut tale of DNA research gone bad. Pompous geneticist George Galen has developed DNA-based cures for Parkinson's, sickle-cell and other deadly conditions. They are delivered through special viruses, which are deadly in the wrong hands. He has also created a crew of supermen to administer his cures, and a cult religion with himself as Master. Army researcher Frank Hartmann has succeeded in countering the viruses' deadly side effects - but can he foil Galen's ultimate plan?
